Good night everyone, find a moment or two just to breathe in and then release all of this day with your breathing out. Deep inside your belly, all the way out of you. That is something I practice before I rest. Just to remove energy that is not mine to carry. Love to everyone. under the same stars🪶💕

American democracy is under siege, yet Editorial Boards are silent on the remedy of impeachment (and calls for resignation).

The Founders would be appalled at such timidity.

The Publisher of the Sentinel shared insights into his outlets process and rationale.

Please read the full interview.
MAD: If you could communicate with the influential New York TImes Editorial Board, what would you tell them? Does it matter if they called for impeachment as compared to the Sentinel? DP: While newspapers across the nation have shied away from and even discontinued “house editorials” for fear of appearing partisan or angering part of their readership, we feel that controversial news and opinions are not partisan but pragmatic. Not only do newspapers endanger their credibility by dodging controversial stories and opinions, they undermine our valid arguments that Trump’s impeachment is a national question, not a partisan one. By ignoring hard questions on either side, supporting or dismissing Trump’s impeachment, newspapers can appear complicit.

The bloodbath in Sudan, where blood on the ground can be seen from space, should shake humanity to our core.

Instead US war profiteers rename the Dept of Defense; threaten Greenland, Canada, Panama, Venezuela; support Putin & Netanyahu as they lead us over the cliff to World War 3.

Zelensky warns about AI war, as big a threat as nuclear weapons. We need nonproliferation, worldwide pacts to keep from turning Earth into a nonstop bloodbath manipulated by sociopathic billionaires, who see this as a game. They have a sickness to accumulate & kill, like the colonizers they are.

Zelensky warns about the severe threat that AI + autonomous drones pose to humanity. AI generates targets faster than humans can keep up. The killing frenzy in Gaza was fueled by AI databases like Gospel, Lavender, Where's Daddy. AI was determining who should get killed, along w their family.

Sometimes (every day) I wonder if OpenAI, Microsoft AI, Anthropic, Grok (all w Pentagon contracts) are conducting MKUltra-type experiments on members of the public, students, teens. Microsoft, OpenAI, Anthropic are also partnering w AFT & UFT teachers' unions to train teachers to put AI in K-12.

Two independent studies found that AI chatbots were better at persuading voters than political ads. The most persuasive bots also lied the most. This is something that humans working in psyops have known for decades. AI is psyops at scale. www.technologyreview.com/2025/12/04/1...
This is a quote from the article summing up both studies in Technology Review: "A multi-university team of researchers has found that chatting with a politically biased AI model was more effective than political advertisements at nudging both Democrats and Republicans to support presidential candidates of the opposing party. The chatbots swayed opinions by citing facts and evidence, but they were not always accurate—in fact, the researchers found, the most persuasive models said the most untrue things."

Interesting resolution passed by Manchester, Connecticut, last week:

(pages 123-126 here: ecode360.com/MA2034/docum...)
WHEREAS, The Trump Administration’s mass deportation campaign has terrorized cities and towns around the country, including in Los Angeles, California; Chicago, Illinois; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Hamden, Connecticut; and NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Directors of the Town of Manchester, as follows: 1. The Town of Manchester condemns the ongoing federal campaign of mass deportation–including assaults on demonstrators lawfully protesting against it and the deplorable conditions in immigration detention facilities–as cruel, inhumane, and a violation of the rights guaranteed under the Constitution and Laws of the State of Connecticut and the United States. 2. The Town of Manchester condemns recent incursions by federal immigration enforcement agents against hospitals and healthcare facilities, schools, daycares, houses of worship, and courthouses across the country. 3. The Town of Manchester condemns immigration enforcement actions targeted against journalists, demonstrators, academics, clergy, and others engaged in lawful activities protected by the First Amendment.

From Amnesty International:
“We’re locked up in 1000 ft2 cages. There are 32 people in each cage, and 8 cages inside the tent. The lights are like stadium lights; they’re always on, they’re never turned off or even dimmed. It’s very cold, the air conditioning is very strong. There are a lot of mosquitos.”197 Individual previously detained at “Alligator Alcatraz” “We didn’t have access to any sort of media. There are no televisions or newspapers. We didn’t have the ability to practice our religion; there are no bibles. We were locked up in the cages for almost 24 hours a day. We couldn’t have any visits, not even our lawyers or family members.”198 Individual previously detained at “Alligator Alcatraz”

We are on the verge of World War 3, and Netanyahu, Trump, and Putin have their foot on the accelerator. Xi is making threatening gestures to Japan & Taiwan. They will all lunge to grab what they want; none of these psychopaths care about the common people who are being killed & will be killed.

The US is on the wrong side of history. We are being led off a cliff by pro-fascist, anti-democratic, anti-human rights greedy sociopaths. From climate, to children's health, to world health, to human rights, to upholding democracy, our "leaders" are failing. Putin won't stop at Ukraine.
